The National Alliance of Advocates for Buprenorphine Treatment

Buprenorphine (Suboxone®,
Subutex®3, Zubsolv®4, Bunavail™5, Probuphine®6) is an opioid
medication used to treat opioid addiction in the privacy of a physician's office.1
Buprenorphine can be dispensed for take-home use, by prescription.1 This, in
addition to the pharmacological and safety profile of buprenorphine, makes it an attractive
treatment for patients addicted to opioids.2
